Israel will not withdraw from Gaza's Philadelphi corridor despite the upcoming Saturday deadline, Haaretz reported.
An unnamed official said Israel "will not allow Hamas to roam our border again".
The Philadelphi Corridor is a buffer zone between Egypt and Gaza which has existed for more than four decades, and has been maintained on the basis of two bilateral agreements between Cairo and Israel.
Israel agreed to begin its withdrawal from the area at the end of the first stage of the ceasefire deal, which falls on Saturday.
